Quotations

In a meeting Friday with fellow New York lawmakers, Rangel "indicated there was some sloppiness" in his official papers, Rep. Edolphus Towns, D-N.Y., told reporters, "but, you know, there's no criminality here."

While Mr. Kucinich told MSNBC last month that Mr. Towns is a "good man" and "my friend," he said his desire to be the panel's top Democrat stems from "an approach which I think is going to be necessary to deal with Mr. Issa."
